Integrate the IOV Name Service with your wallet
IOV built the IOV Name Service (on Mainnet since October 2019 🚀), the registry for starnames.
What is a starname?
A starname is your universal username for the blockchain world.
It enables you to receive crypto-currencies or to log in to blockchain applications in a seamless way. Transferring value becomes fast and easy.
It exists 3 types of starnames:
iov starname This type of starname ends by *iov like veronika*iov. It is accessible for everyone.
premium starname This type of starname starts with * like *mycompany or *marta. It is used by company or people who wants to have an exclusive and personalized address.
business starname This type of starname contains * like antoine*mycompany. A owner of a premium starname can decide to create other business starnames and assign them to different departments.
